When I was in high school a couple of my friends were working on a script for a Vietnam movie.  I don't rember much about it, though.  I think as far as it got was a rough draft of the script and a friend and I started to build a tank by using a little red wagon, a small recliner, and some cardboard.

I remember that there was an inexplicable scene where a girl is doing a strip tease in the jungle and is suddenly shot with a large arrow and pinned to a tree.  There's also a crazy-eyed surgeon who says something about forgetting his glasses, pauses, and grins mysteriously.

Hahahahahaha. Lot of great stuff here guys. Belly laughs aplenty! Actually, I don't have a premise for ya'll right now but I read something very interesting not long ago that would make one of the greatest b-movie premises of all time!!!!

I read somewhere that Bruce Campbell was going to star in a film in which he played himself, living in his quiet hometown with his wife. Everything's going perfectly for "The Chin." Then suddenly, murders occur all over the town at night and the culprit turns out to be a mean and vicious beastie that's right out of a nightmare. When the local law enforcement fails to stop the man-eating critter, the townsfolk turn to Bruce because he was in the "Evil Dead" movies and should have some idea of what to do! From then on Bruce reluctantly agrees to help and ends up getting a lot of folks killed because he just isn't the hero everyone thought him to be.... or is he?!

This sounds like it could be a campy and fun cult favorite if its actually made (and done well). It'd be pretty damned hilarious to see Bruce fumbling with a chainsaw and not really knowing how it started, even though he carried one with him throughout "Evil Dead 2" and "Army of Darkness." LOL!

Anyway, since I'm a no talent hack, I will adjourn for the afternoon and think of my very own premise.....  BounceGiggle

I would do Punk rock zombie film. all different ages of street punk, hardcore kid, old school punk (listen to the old 77 punk) pop- punker, Anarco punk (the ones that live out in the street) a Skinhead (non-nazi kind) and a some punk rock girls go to a show. none of them know each other just go to a show. Each has a different motive to go, To make fun of the others, get drunk and fight or just to see the show. When the react the venue the show had been cancelled. They all start to argue when all of a sudden DISCO ZOMBIES attack them and their forced to break into the venue and barracide themselves inside.

The have to get over their stupid musically differences and looks and band together or die. They are attack be all sorts of zombies such as METALHEAD ZOMBIES, NEWWAVE, EMO AND GOTH, NAZI SKINHEAD that threaten them as well as punk in general.

It would be a fast and furious 90 min with blood and gore with a reasonable story. And Boobs. So you know it a winner.  TongueOut Thumbup

My first sequel, Vampire Penguins vs. Disco Zombies 2, subtitled, "Boobs on Parade" won't have much to do with the first episode and would be standard hollywood formula: alternating flashes of boobs, explosions, boobs, explosions, etc., until the 70 minute mark with a crazy chasedown with a psycho in an Oprah mask spouting really bad one-liners, followed by a batsh!t twist-that-makes-no-sense ending...all to the soundtrack of Devo.

In an alternative history, polymer plants were constructed in the old west. In 1866, Lincoln ended the civil war by dropping the atomic bomb. The factories were destroyed, and thousands of cattle and people were obliterated. The genetic material blended with the radioactive plastics. A few years later, when cowboys & settlers and the like began to repopulate the western territories, they discovered that a new race had been born out of the contaminated soil; A race of half men, half plastic(think The Blue Man Group)… And they were edible!... AND THEY BECAME KNOWN AS “THE FIGHTING POLYS”!

IF MEAT WERE PLASTIC, IT WOULD PROBABLY SMELL KINDA’ FUNNY WHEN YOU COOKED IT!

Announcer: "Little Cerberus is back as Fors' Cannon, in his newest crimefighting adventure, EXCESSIVE FORS' III! --- The first time, it was personal, the second time, it was really personal, but this time..."

Me: "This is really, really personal!"

A friend of mine actually has written a pretty good script IMO which sort of combines Interview with the Vampire and The Godfather.

Antrax. I was just making fun because the longtime friendly (sometimes not) rival. Punks making fun of Metalheads and vice versa. All for fun really.  Smile

I'm currently working on a script for a movie about me. It would be a movie about my involvement in a movie about me.

Of course, modest soul that I am, I'd have to find an actor to play me, but I think I could slip in a few cameos of myself. I've already written myself into the script as the narrator, as well as my pretend friend.

The best part will be a scene in which I give a standout performance as The Guy Who Plays me in a Movie.

And then, the world will be a better place.

We open with a young boy awakening in the dark. He looks out the window, sees fresh snow and is clearly excited. He sneaks out of his room and down to the stairs from which he sees Santa crouched near the Christmas tree. Quietly, he creeps up on Santa. We cut to a shot in front of Santa, who is some poor slob with a tear-drenched face and a double-barrel shotgun in his mouth. Just as the boy touches him and says, "Santa?", he pulls both triggers. Kid is soaked in brains and gore and passes out.

Turns out it is a movie being watched by a bunch of old biddies in a church basement who want to put an end to sick horror films. After batting around ideas of how to make their anti-sickness statement, they decide to fight fire with fire and make a Christian anti-gore gore film (cue "Passion Of The Christ" comments here).

They become cult heroes to people like us--until someone starts their own protest, by killing the old ladies.

A virus that attacks the Y Chromosome has left the earth with only four million men. Although the genepool is broad enough to secure mankind's future, with several billion women left... Well, you get the picture.

A simple vaccine was discovered within a few short months of the first outbreak, and the virus was eradicated only a few months later, so it's been a relatively short time for the situation to evolve.

Enter, a lonesome, pathetic, thirty-something bachelor, who's so accustomed to rejection at this point in his life, that that even the most obvious advances from women go right over his head, believing that even though he's the only man for five hundred miles, his chances are still less than zero.

Then, one day as he's going about his excuse for a life, he's arrested, & all of his pornography is confiscated & destroyed.

He learns that new legislation has been enacted, and is told that he has thirty days to improve his hygiene, lower his cholesterol, and "Get Some", or else he'll be convicted of inadequacy, & sent off to "Cup Camp".

A small group of scientists finds proof of aliens (or something). In typical fashion, the CIA already knew about it, & sets out to "clean up the mess".

A couple of the scientists escape, & in an attempt to get their story out, end up in the company of a small time internet porn goon in a tiny backwoods town in West Virginia.

Smelling opportunity, the media savvy porn goon agrees to help them, immediately trickling out the right information to all the right places. Naturally, it takes the CIA two seconds to figure it out.

Here's the catch.

Aside from being a tight knit community where people are accustomed to killing things to offset their grocery bills, the town has also been heavily involved in organized crime since prohibition, and their experiences with Yankee mobsters & a recent FBI probe have made them wary of strangers.

Throw in a subplot about how the CIA operation forced the closure of the FBI probe, which was headed up by the brother of the man in charge of the CIA operation, leading to much personal & professional discourse between the two.

Add to that, a tiny back story on how The Governor comes from this town, & won on a campaign created by the porn goon & funded by the local bootleggers.

What starts out as a simple clean up job only gets messier & messier.

I would like to see a horror spaghetti western.  It's too bad a full-blown euro-horror spaghetti western was never made.  There were a couple that had subtle hints of horror like "Stranger's Gundown" for example, but none of them ever took it all the way.  Anyway, what comes to my mind is a spaghetti western Frankenstein movie in which Frankenstein or one of his descendants creates the monster in the old west.  The monster kills Frankenstein's fiance and flees to an old ghost town.  He learns to read, speak, and use a gun from an old gunfighter who befriends him.  Meanwhile Dr. Frankenstein has become pretty handy with a gun himself and seeks revenge against the monster.  He tracks him down and ultimately the two have a showdown on a dusty street in the middle of town.  This would have to be filmed in Almeria and Rome as a serious movie, directed by one of the original spaghetti western directors, dubbed in English, and   have a cool spaghetti western style music score.  That's the only way it would work.  If it's made to be campy or bad on purpose it would suck.  Something should also be done to the film to make it look a little aged and worn like it was a theatre used print from the 60's.  I wouldn't mind seeing Franco Nero in it either as Frankenstein, the monster, or the gunfighter.
